[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Div033:
I believe the ICS launcher relies on too many radical framework changes in 4.0 for a backport to 2.3 to be possible. Perhaps it could be done, but you'd probably be better off writing a whole new launcher strictly for 2.3 that mimics the 4.0 launcher. I know one dev tried to do this, but his work remains largely unfinished and isn't nearly as good of a user experience as the actual 4.0 launcher.

The reason the gingerbread launcher was easily back ported is because 2.3 used much of the same old same AOSP framework, so it wasn't too hard getting it to work.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rheller219:
not sure whats going on with my gtab....was surfing the net, battery was around 30% so I shut it off and put it on the charger. Came back about 15 minutes later to play on it. Hit the power button and the lock screen came on and then flashed red for a second and then black. Since then, I cant do anything...hit the power button, screen stays black...hold power and volume +, screen stays black...opened it up, disconnected the battery, hit the internal reset....screen stays black. hook it up to the PC and it recognizes the Gtab as tegra 2 drives, but I cant explore anything on either sd or internal. Trying to get to APX mode, but that isnt happening either....Is this thing dead?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rheller219:
ok...got it to NVFlash with the laptop...thats good. However, I cannot get the screen to come on. I can power the gtab on but the screen stays black...no 3 birds no nothing. any clues on bringing this back?

The cable to the LCD display might have come loose. Open it up and have a look around. Search for posts by user "aabbondanza" where he makes specific suggestions for this kind of problem.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rheller219:
thanks for the reply, I read all his posts and also reseated the cables....I dont know if something on the board got fried or the the screen is burnt out
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
If you can set up adb (there are a couple of sticky threads on the board here for this--on Linux, you just need the adb binary and not the whole Android SDK--it might be the same on Windows), you can try going (blindly) into recovery mode with Power and Vol+, and then try to see if the system booted and if the kernel reported any errors.

C:\> [B]adb shell dmesg > dmesg.txt[/B]

Post the dmesg.txt file here.

You can also run this command--again while booting blind into the regular system--to get the Android system logs:

C:\> [B]adb logcat -v time > logcat.txt[/B]

Kill the adb after about 5 mins or so and post the logcat.txt. Collect the dmesg output before you collect the Android logs, though.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rheller219:
I havent done any adb stuff yet...i will try it and see if I can get some info
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rheller219:
I cant get adb to find the device? All I am getting is NVIDIA Tegra 2 USB Device in the Device Manager. nothing under Other devices or Universal Serial Bus Controllers. After NVFlashing which works, I am unable to put the tablet in USB Debugging cause the screen dont come on...is this have something to do with it or does NVFlash turn USB Debugging on somehow? All I want to know is if the screen took a dump or something on the motherboard did...but I cant log anything with ADB currently cause the device is not found in ADB... anyone know what contacts to check with a voltmeter to see if I have power going to the screen atleast?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeevvp:
Most custom ROMs may have USB debugging enabled by default, and CWM always has it enabled. If Windows doesn't recognize the gTab, try Linux.

i found bionix not very snappy, and im stuck on froyo. surely the gingerbread/ics offers some better upgrades?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
MIUI (based on 2.3.7 gingerbread), without a doubt. And to make your life easier here's a link to my guide that will take you through all the steps on getting your phone to run the custom firmware. MIUI is easily customizable, smooth, and stable. Then when you add the Glitch kernel to the mix you get a truly amazing result (Increased speed + Amazing Battery). I used to use Bionix and it was great, but MIUI offers so much more.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BumbleG:
The pace at which the ICS ROMs are improving is pretty awesome, and definitely something to get excited about. I never really bothered with Gingerbread, everytime I tried a 2.3 ROM I ended up going back to 2.2 within a week. Currently trying the I9000 ICS port, but my fallback is usually Toxic Crazy8 with a GB theme slapped on.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhiteBoyAwesome:
2.3 has worse battery life than 2.2. The ICS roms are coming along nicely, but not really a daily yet (in my opinion). I would try out Team Toxics JCCs D9. its on rc2 and the final should be up today or tomorrow. It has great battery and is very snappy. link below

There is an ICS port in the making. The creator being neobuddy89. However it is in the beta stages and not something you'd want to use as a daily rom. Still you should check it out, it looks really nice and is very smooth. I'll post a link in a few...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BumbleG:
Bionix wasn't the snappiest, but I found that the NextGen V2 had the same theming and was much smoother. From my experience it had some stuttering issues from a lack of RAM though.

I'm interested in trying the new Phiremod as well though, I like the theming on it.

Hello Everyone,

Has anyone come across a Leather case/pouch big enough for the Amaze that will hold a TPU case and the phone? I have a TPU case but want the TPU to fit in the leather case like my old phone did. I have a case of the dropsies and would rather not keep it in my pocket. :)

I have been looking other sites also. My guesstimation is that with the TPU case on the phone measures 132mm x 70mm x 18mm.

I am digging through that site now.

Thanks,

[HTC Amaze 4G] stevedebi:
I bought this one, it is a carry over from my HD2. It is a bit large for the Amaze, but I use the inner pocket for two spare batteries. With my Diztronic case, the phone fits quite well.

Leather Case/Holster

Hey stevedebi would you mind posting up a picture of this holster that you got, front and back?

I'm trying to see about the clip and/or belt loops.

The amazon link doesn't show the back of the holster.

I don't like wearing it the clip since I have a tendency to break them.

Belt loops work so much better for me.

If could post pictures that would be awesome. Thanks!
[HTC Amaze 4G] stevedebi:
Take a look at the URL from the company site. It has lots of views. Actually, I ONLY use belt loop, and this one is great - you slip the clip over the belt and it never comes off. I was hesitant at first, but it is great.

I do use a wider belt, about 1.5 inch; I've never used it with a narrow belt.

well couldn't post the link due to not having 8 posts yet but i'll still put some pics on I hope lol.

The data cable works but you actually lose charge while its plugged in, the pouch is the best part of it and it came with a clip and 2 belt loops on the back for a belt I have the smoky TPU case for the amaze 4g. This is labeled for the ATT infuse 4g. I'll post some pictures of it here in a bit. Hopefully you can get it separate without the crappy extras.

[HTC Amaze 4G] nguyendqh:
Glad I could help. And on an extra note I was able to use headphones with the phone in the holster.

All I had to do was push the phone up a little from the bottom until the jack appeared.

This may only work with d3o cases because they add so much bulk.

Another thinner case and the phone might slide down to the bottom regardless.

I connect Galaxy Note to my 802.11n AP

But the connection speed only 65mbps

My desktop PC connection speed is 270~300mbps

Why Galaxy Note Wifi speed is so slow?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] felixjai:
You need to understand how 802.11n works. To achieve 300mbps speed, you will need 2-3 spatial antennas which can be found on modern laptops with Intel Wifi chipset (such as 6300). Our galaxy note has only one antenna (should be 1 for each radio band (a/n, b/g/n), but it is "N" compatible. So your speed is actually pretty good on a single antenna.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thelestat:
Unfortunately this is a case of the manufacturer misleading it's customers (tbh I would say out right lying to us).

As the above poster mentioned the note is compatible with N, however it can not support N speeds, as far as I have seen all phones that claim 802.11n are actually limited to 65mbps. So really are not 802.11n at all, rather just a little faster than 802.11g.

Although having said that unless you are transferring huge files across the network, streaming multiple FullHD streams at the same time, 65mbps is going to be sufficient.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highchecker@mac.com:
